Corporate Constitutional “Rights” Harm Small Business | Common Dreams

Corporate Constitutional “Rights” Harm Small Business | Common Dreams
"Small businesses find themselves in the same position when it comes to our First Amendment “right” to participate in the electoral process.  We simply do not have the funds to compete against the big boys. A body that should be protecting the interests of small businesses, the US Chamber of Commerce is overrun with the very same corporations who are exercising their personhood “rights” to slap down any business which challenges their policies, and frequently lobbies for laws and supports candidates who will support their corporate agenda."
